Property Description
unbeatable West Philadelphia location — but 4707 Sansom Street delivers on all fronts.
Completely renovated from top to bottom, this stunning four-bedroom, three-bath row
home sits in the heart of Walnut Hill, one of Philadelphia's most vibrant and sought-after
neighborhoods. Whether you are a buyer seeking the perfect primary residence or an
investor looking for a premium asset, this property checks every box.
AN ENTERTAINER'S DREAM ON THE MAIN LEVEL
Step inside and be immediately drawn into an expansive, open-concept living area that
flows effortlessly into a generous dining space — anchored by a stunning exposed brick wall
that lends warmth and character unique to Philadelphia beloved row home architecture.
The kitchen is not just beautiful; it is genuinely functional, designed with the serious home
cook in mind. A large dedicated pantry/coat closet keeps everyday essentials neatly out of
sight. Just beyond the kitchen, a bonus BBQ room — outfitted with extra shelving and a cabinet — offers the kind of flex space most homes simply don't have. Step through to your private
fenced balcony/porch and you have the perfect stage for summer cookouts, container
gardening, or simply unwinding with a glass of wine after a long day.
SPACIOUS BEDROOMS AND A PRIMARY SUITE TO LOVE
The upper level features two generously sized bedrooms, each with ample closet space,
served by a well-appointed shared hall bathroom. A dedicated laundry closet — paired with
a separate linen closet — means no hauling laundry up and down stairs.
The crown of the home is the primary bedroom suite. Here, a walk-in closet leads directly
into a gorgeous, private en-suite bathroom — a true sanctuary. This is the kind of suite that
makes mornings feel like a luxury hotel experience. Storage throughout the upper level is
plentiful and purposefully placed.
VERSATILE LOVER LEVEL AND RARE PRIVATE PARKING
The lower level adds remarkable flexibility to this already exceptional home. A fourth
bedroom with its own full bathroom is ideal for guests, an au pair suite, or a private home
office. The remaining open space is a blank canvas — picture a home gym, a media/gaming
lounge, a music studio, or a playroom. The possibilities are limited only by your
imagination. A long interior hallway leads to the back of the property, where you will find something truly coveted in this part of the city: your own private garage plus a driveway with space for an
additional vehicle. In Walnut Hill, parking like this is a genuine premium.
THE WALNUT HILL NEIGHBORHOOD - THE BEST OF WEST PHILLY
Walnut Hill sits in the heart of West Philadelphia, bounded by Market Street and Spruce
Street between 45th and 52nd Streets — placing you in the northwestern portion of the
highly desirable University City District. Tree-lined streets of classic brick row homes with
bay windows create a neighborhood aesthetic that is quintessentially Philadelphia, yet the
community itself feels fresh, dynamic, and full of energy. The neighborhood is celebrated for its genuine diversity, its tight-knit community, and its remarkable walkability. Bars, coffee shops, restaurants, and parks are all within easy reach, and the SEPTA Market-Frankford Line provides direct, rapid access to Center City and beyond. Both the University of Pennsylvania and Drexel University are less than two miles to the east, ensuring consistent demand and a lively neighborhood atmosphere year-round.
This is a neighborhood with real history: American Bandstand was first broadcast just a few
blocks away at 46th and Market, and legendary singer and activist Paul Robeson called
Walnut Hill home. The active Walnut Hill Community Association continues to advocate
for neighborhood improvements, including the recently revamped Community Playground
at 4700 Sansom practically your front yard. 4707 is more than a home — it is a lifestyle!
